Art & Inspiration ***Friday Art Show...A taste of Mooneyes***

Great show so far everyone. I finished this for a customer this week. His dad's drag car from the 50's. Illustration is a Christmas present for him...



Finally something truly on-topic from me.....

 

hello FAS!

A photoshopped one this week!

Before:



And after

 

Nice pieces everybody! Just another reason to shout out:'Thank god it's Friday!'
That scallopjob on the golden caddy is absolutely gorgeous...

No new work from me but I hope to finish my Batmobile flyer tonight, and if I do I'll post em here. For now you'll just have to settle for something old from my archive ;-)


^ Another DAF in a kinda familair 'Disney goes Roth'-style... (Acrylics on canvas. 2005)


^ Hotrod girlie in a Model A pickup. (Acrylics on board. 2002?)

 

Great stuff this week! I'm really digging on Spoggie's and plummad's watercolor.

Here's an illustration for a car being built by a HAMBer. My Dad's shop is doing a lot of the work on the car, and we're still working on placement of some of the logos, numerals, etc. Here's the original sketch as well as the "nearly" finished illustration.

Look for the real car at an LSR course near you in 2010!

 

Nice....

 

well great show so far everyone.. last weekend while I was sick I did these each took me 2-3 hours

1936 Ford Roadster at the Ty-Rods Old Timers Meet in September 2009

 

Hey dude, nice rendering!
- just my 2 cents but i think the car would really pop if you tone down that backrground vinnette. The car is rendered really nicely, but the tone on tone drowns out the sketch. if the background box was lighter, or gray or something, i think you'll find it acentuates the car more.

very nice work form everryone!

 

I did some adult coloring with some of the stuff I have seen from the art shows in the past...


This one below was for a client that had a Fantasy Football Team named the Drunkin Sailors (I liked it myself)

 

Another great show so far. Love those fins A32'.

Here's mine for this week. One from the recent Goodguys event in Pleasanton, California.

 

Herr rudolf. Love your work!

 

Here's some crapper seats I threw together for our gift exchange at our annual swanx xmas party.

Sorry to hear of your loss Rollie, very nice paintings.
Godspeed Marc.

 

Been playing with plastic this week, and remembering how much I love sanding.
Bonneville Streamliner, 1/32 scale, 6 1/2" long. Might cast some in Pewter.

 

My humble offering. As usual I am in AWE. The paintings, drawings, striping, sculpture, photos are incredible! You guys from Northern Europe WOW! Must be the long winters, gives you time to hone your skills. My 11 year old son and I make sure to sit down and look at this every week.
Have a nice weekend everyone, John

 

Nice work by everyone, very cool stuff this week, here's a couple I finished up recently, one mixed media and one drawing in pen and ink.

 

Hey.......Happy Friday!

KScooter, the chrome on that '56 is spectacular! nice work.

 

Hey Fellas,

I've been working on this for a couple weeks now, it's my first casting called the "Yucky Rat's Foot". Next step is to make the packaging and add the key chain. I will have very few for sale, about five, and a couple to trade if anyone is interested. Total edition of fifteen.

PM me if your interested, $15 smackers!

Here is a sampling of some new stuff from me.

 

Great show guys!
I've been crazy busy, so I haven't been able to post anything in a while. Here's a concept sketch that I'll turn into a finished piece soon. (I hope!) I'm going to draw it pretty large for a pencil drawing, maybe 40" wide. I want it to give you the sensation of speed and being alone in a quiet, vast and desolate space.

"Solitude at El Mirage"

 

VERY nice.

 

here's a 36 chevy tub/coach i did the other day, inspired by the rusty hulk pictured.. i posted a better desciption of the idea here a few days ago:

X-mas card guy's is gone already, I was wondering how long that would take.

 

Sorry to hear man

Love the eyeballs!

Johnny99, phenomenal work on the dragster!

I've been busy as all hell this week, but really not much I can show....either O/T or Christmas gifts!

This is another take on an old Harley panhead. It's this week's charity auction.

 

Fnn WoW! Great work!

 

Awesome show this morning!

I haven't been on here in quite a while, and I'm trying to get back in the swing of things. Here are a couple older pieces.

This was a comissioned piece, 2x4' acrylic on canvas.


2x3" each graphite and watercolor on paper.

 

As always, another GREAT friday art show! I recently finished up the T-shirt design for my local clubs car show next June.
I shot the reference photos at this last summers Goodguys show here in Des Moines.
- It just doesn't feel right being done this far ahead, usually I'm scrambling like mad to get it done so we still have time to get it printed before the show
